Welcome to my TAC 2014 log! After this little introduction about my current level and
goals in my two target languages (French and Spanish), I am going to attempt to write all future posts in those languages (this will be quite hard for Spanish at first, haha). Spanish I am a beginner in Spanish. I had classes for three years in high school and then did nothing with the language for eleven years. Though I retained some comprehension (probably helped out a bit from French), my active abilities pretty much vanished. Here are the resources I plan to use: Jim%C3%A9nez/dp/2253084336">Espagnol Débutant Course/dp/0764103334">Spanish for Reading Destinos Daily conversations on Verbling and Skype I am pretty sure I will work through Assimil's Perfectionnement Espagnol after I finish with Espagnol Débutant. I have already started using Verbling daily in an attempt to reactivate the basic Spanish I had in high school. Goals for Spanish: Converse daily Complete all of the courses listed above Hopefully get to a solid B1 or higher in all aspects of the language by the end of 2014 Write in Spanish here consistently French I would rate my current level in French as high intermediate. I can read newspapers no problem, understand movies well enough to enjoy them and sometimes even close to 100% with easier ones, and have no problem with most radio broadcasts. I can usually interact with relative ease with native speakers but still have difficulties if I have to describe a complex idea or situation. I also have trouble reading long-form fiction -- too much unknown vocabulary. For French my goals are much hazier. Right now I plan to keep doing what I'm doing, listening to one or two hours of radio per day, conversing several times per week on Verbling and Skype, and writing in French here. I also intend to put a higher focus on reading fiction, as that is certainly my weaker area in terms of comprehension. --- Okay, best of luck to my fellow members of teams Triomphe and Lobo. :-) Let's get to it!

[Español] Gracias a todos!
Hoy fue un día excelente de español. Hice una lección de Espagnol Débutant (7) y acabo de hablar (escribir por Skype) tres horas con una mujer de Argentina -- una "porteña", como ella dijo. Hablabamos de películas y de libros y de nuestros estudios de idiomas también. Me recomendó una peli, "El secrete de sus ojos." Voy a buscarla ahora. :-) Edited by tastyonions on 31 December 2013 at 4:56am 1 person has voted this message useful | |
